Happy Halloween!

Today was a fun day of Halloween festivity. Lisa dressed as a cute , little bee. We went to the county library for toddler reading time and had a costume parade through the library and danced to "The Monster Mash". Then we went to a "Trunk-or-Treat" party and Lisa got her stash of candy there. She was pretty mesmerized with everything that was going on, but enjoyed herself very much. Afterward, we visited Ryan at work and he was happy to see us.

Umbrella: 1.00$. Lisa playing in the rain: priceless.

We found this umbrella today for one dollar. It's amazing the things that will entertain at this age. Everything is so new and fun.

Joining the blog force!

So..this is my first attempt at a blog. I'm mostly doing it because my friend Natalie has such a cute blog and I thought I would give it a try. But it should be a fun way to share what's going on with us. This semester has been quite busy for Ryan, probably his most difficult yet, but we have still been finding time to have fun. We all went fishing last weekend. Lisa and I threw rocks in the water and took pictures of all the pretty leaves. She still enjoys being carried in the child carrier on my back and gets very silly at times. Her new thing is to sing all day long about everything she is doing. Even if I don't know what she's saying every time, I know she knows and it sure is cute.
